The education.weebly.com site is for editing and managing your website and class of students. Your students pages are not linked yours.


Creating Student Accounts


In this video tutorial,
  • How to Create Student Accounts
  • How to Manage Student Accounts
  • How to Keep Student Accounts Private from Visitors
  • Where Students Go to Edit Their Weebly Pages
  • How to Manage Comments on Student Weeblys


Students can access their accounts in your classroom by going to http://students.weebly.com/ . During setup, students will pick the name for their Weebly and it will become part of its address. If their Weebly is named "Bill's Digital Desk", then their Weebly address would be http://billsdigitaldesk.weebly.com . If you have made it private, visitors would need to know the password that the teacher setup just to see the site. Without it, visitors won't see student content. Additionally, you can set that any comments on your students' sites be moderated by you so they don't become public until you check them.
